From the very first moment you pass through the floral arbour at the front gate of this cottage built around 1865, a feeling of love and warmth surrounds you. This is not just another house to look at, it’s a real home clearly maintained and loved by the vendor. Real estate agents will wax lyrical about the most menial of houses, but here you have a property that not only lives up to anything I might write, but fall short of the actual. The location of this property is second to none with all amenities within walking distance, cafes and bars, local schools, train station and transport.
The stunning cottage style gardens with fruit trees and lush Sir Walter turf add only more to the sweet appeal of this cottage. Walk onto the timber deck that wraps around the front of the house through a crim-safe security screen with stained glass main door and be invited into the light filled hallway. With original polished timber floors throughout all 3 bedrooms, hallway and dining room, each room is an individual delight. Character features, high ceilings with subtle modern chic blend seamlessly with original focal points, like the wonderful maple fireplace set in a period brick chimney.
At the rear of the house a substantial lounge room opens onto another covered timber deck, so you can relax with views of your beautifully kept garden. With an expansive solid timber kitchen fit for any budding Master chef, equipped with an impressive large gas range you’ll be able to cater for all needs.
When buying a house of this era, bathrooms are often a compromise, but our vendor has lavished a bathroom fit for an 11 score on the Block. With hero pieces at both ends there is a spectacular free standing bath and a stunning full width double shower that dominates the far end. Including a one off vanity, fully vented skylight, downlights and glistening pendant lights. Just outside the main bathroom through the modern laundry you will also find a separate powder room with shower, sink and toilet.
Outside at the rear of the property is an expansive fully lined Home Office/Teenager Retreat with its own covered balcony area and around the back cleverly hides a newly built lockable shed. With a double carport, long driveway, double gates and both front and rear gardens fully fenced, this is a must see property. Move on in as you won’t have to do a single thing.
